They allowed me to sit with her for a few hrs before taking her off the respirator. I just sat held her hand and talked. The Dr then came in and I knew it was time. I was dreading that moment but it was nothing like I expected, she carried on breathing for nearly an hr, all so peaceful and serene, She finally passed at 3.58pm when the angels came to take her.
She looked so peaceful, and free of pain.
I cried but did not care,it seemed to be the most natural thing to do, so did one of the nurses (she was new to ITU and this was her first time dealing with something like this) bless her :A.
I think I am now just numb from it all, I feel empty inside.
As sad as it has been I am so glad I had the pleasure of knowing this lady and even in her last minutes I am sure she knew I was with her, and as silly as it seems she has now given me strength to never fear death.
A big thank you to you all for all the support you have shown me, I mean that from the bottom of my heart :A
Now I have to get back to work (my employers have not even mentioned me having a few hrs off this evening, although its only 2 hrs) Perhaps it might be a good thing as it keeps my mind off it all and there are others that need me also
Big *hugs* to you. The lady was very lucky to have you with her in her final days.so sorry for your loss today i know just how you feel today i lost a friend who was way too young to be going to the angels but i pray for them both tonight
Sending *hugs* to you also. So sorry to hear of your loss.
Thinking of you both at this difficult time...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.
PRIDE
There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
Is yours to decide, this is your life.
